Just over a year ago I got my Unicomp Model M Mini, a newly manufactured version of what is in my estimation the best computer keyboard ever, the IBM Model M SSK. The Minis and the SSKs are like a regular IBM Model M, but they don’t have a number pad at the right, so I can put the trackball there and not have to reach for it.
What would happen if you took the classic layout and look of the Model M and rebuilt it with modern mechanical guts? Vortex decided to find out and the result is a unique keyboard with one foot in two different decades. Passed up the Legend itself because it lacks too many modern comforts? Then read on for the Remix.
